DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

What we do, step by step

In total, it normally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. For a village or hamlet like Ufton Nervet, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

Related advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not point over movement joints
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Deal with small splits early
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
Clean gently: a mild cleaner and a soft cloth, with no blades or scourers.
Mould under a second layer of sealant keeps growing out of sight. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
Remedial sealant around Ufton Nervet
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Aldermaston station change hands often, and botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. If you look after a building such as Sulhamstead and Ufton Nervet School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

- Expansion joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
When to call us in Ufton Nervet
All sealant wears out eventually. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, especially in damp, poorly aired rooms. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
In the older streets around Church of St Peter, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
What your quote should include

Why act early in Ufton Nervet
Repeat failures have a cause. Taking time to find the cause, whether it’s movement, a leak or the wrong product, is what stops it happening again. Around Ufton Nervet, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
